I was so excited to join this hop because for one I needed a new challenge and for two I absolutely love pearls. My favorite thing to do when in Hawaii is (and I know it is so touristy) to open a oyster for a pearl while shouting "Aloha". I must say I have some beautiful pearls; such precious treasures. I just happened to have a variety (large and I haven't made a dint) of pearls, in different sizes and colors in my stash so this hop was meant to be for me.
The lovely Michelle (Shel) from
MiShel Designs is our host, thank you Shel for this fun experience, I had the best time with my pearls!

OMG I love all of your pieces, but I especially love the bead, or should I say, pearl embroidered collar it is just gorgeous! My second favorite is the long strand silver pearl necklace and earrings.

Shibori is fascinating, stunning design! I'm eating that one with my eyes :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! What a stunning array of gorgeous pieces. The colours in the waterfall bracelet and earrings are stunning and the silk shibori necklace is wonderful but all your work is lovely.

Oh my goodness I'm totally speechless! 1st - thanks so much for joining in the pearls hop with us - I'm always tickled pink when another pearl lover has fun designing with their pearls! And 2nd, your designs are just super fabulous! I love that first necklace set and those cascading earrings - wow. But the last necklace - the beaded pearl collar - Over The Top STUNNING! I think that's one of the most beautiful pieces I've seen. Such an amazing design with such gorgeous colors and texture - what talent you have! If that doesn't grace the cover of a magazine, it's their loss - that is one super incredible necklace!!
ReplyDeleteI think I just about died when I saw the shibori piece. Definitely droolworthy!
ReplyDeleteAll of your pieces are wonderful, but am blown away by the shibori collar. Absolutely beautiful
ReplyDeleteI am with Nicole! I just drooled over the shibori piece.....but the wrapped bracelet is gorgeous also. You did great work with your pieces!

ReplyDeleteLike everyone before me, I'm stunned by this gorgeous collection of yours! And the showpiece shibori collar is just amazing beadwork...really taken with that copper and pewter color combo!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I love them all but the last design has to truly be one of the most beautiful necklace that I have ever seen. Such a flow mixed with such precision. Magnificent!!

Your pearl creations are fantastic! The colors and designs are so inspiring. I'm not a pearl expert like many of you but even to my untrained eye, the quality of your pearls seems to jump off the screen at me - made even more lovely by your craftsmanship. Wonderful work!
